| Post subject: | Da Sheik: Pastor Your City |
| I want to encourage every minister today who struggles with their self-worth. The breadth and depth of your ministry is not contingent on how many people fill the seats on Sunday mornings. This is especially true for the pastor of the smaller church. Let me share something that I have done at almost every assignment I've had. I always tried to find some outreach to the community independent of Sunday mornings. |

| good post! My church pastor is involved in so many outside activities! He and his wife are employed with YMCA and he doesn't have to worry about Sunday attendance. There was three of us in service Sunday and we had a wonderful worship service.Vocational pastors are the best |

| I had never pictured what you brought up. YES, I and most folk I have known judged their ministry by the number in church on Sunday AM. Very good points. From the pew I would really like to hear from a friend or someone from the local town say, Your pastor is really interested in the welfare of our town.Very good advice my friend. Most of us are very limited in out scope and outlook.Good Stuff! Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| Thank you, Da Sheik for taking the time to write this encouraging post. I want to second what you mentioned about assisted living and nursing home ministry. We have a lot of experience there due to family members who need/needed 24/7 care. I'm saddened by the huge percentage of people who don't have any visitors (some even have relatives in town).We usually go in December and sing Christmas hymns. No time needs to be spent practicing, rehearsing or worrying about which musicians commit because we may or may not have any instruments. We walk the halls, visit the residents who cannot or did not leave his/her room, ask their favorite song and sing it with them. Other times we may ask the home on a 3 day to one week notice and usually they are thrilled to have us. |
